One thing: we want OCARINA to be more than just another IM, don't we.
So we should first of all write the client that makes all the services available and implement the IM in it as soon as the IM code works properly.
I think I gonna myke a simple server until tomorrow which allows us to implement the first parts of the communication code (login, Buddy list etc.)

BTW: Don't call me "all holy PL", I would prefer if you just call me "Andreas"
